So, now that Youtube UI looks "merry", why aren't you using MPS-Youtube?

Good taste in content. No sarcasm.

>Youtube UI looks "merry
wut? I just use stylish
>why aren't you using MPS-Youtube?
I am, (mostly for music playlists) but honestly I prefer to see the thumbnails for videos.
>having to download an entire video
literally lmao
>>62166917
>he doesn't know mpv supports streaming
brainlet
>>62166553
I'm using youtube-viewer
>>62166934
How do you do this
>>62167219
mpv <link to video>
The command line doesn't bite, anon. Play around with it. Worst that can happen is an error and you get sent to the prompt again.
>>62167219
mpv supports yt streaming out of the box. You can just typempv $URLand that's it
Pic related. My mpsyt config
You can also set it so it doesn't show a video window and you get audio only
>>62167203
>youtube-viewer
Seems better than mpsyt with the gtk frontend, which is why I don't like mpsyt very much
>>62167297
>>62167298
Oh ok that's cool. But how do you keep track of your subscriptions?
>>62167297
Wait, so would I grab the url from mps, and then open it via MPV, or is there a way to pipe the video straight into mpv?
>>62167555
mpsyt doesn't really do that hence why I'm not really a fan. It was originally conceived to listen music from YT without having to use the browser.

Youtube-viewer seems more like what you're looking for but I haven't tried yet.
>>62167555
YouTube API maybe? You could write a simple script
>>62167555
Rss
>>62167674
are there any console-based rss clients?
>that you would actually use
>>62167692
newsbeuter
>>62167721
>been looking for RSS clients about a year or so before the fall of Google readader
>best I came across was TTRSS
>for one reason or another the server got wiped every know and then and lost all my feeds
>never thought of looking for a console client
>newsbeuter
I feel like I'm gonna cry anon
>>62167674
where do i find rss links on youtube? i don't know much about youtube besides just playing video, don't even have an account
>>62167297
oy veyy.. >not having services to open urls with mpv
>>62167674
>>62168097
hmm, found these;https://www.youtube.com/feeds/videos.xml?channel_id=CHANNELID
https://www.youtube.com/feeds/videos.xml?user=USERNAME
https://www.youtube.com/feeds/videos.xml?playlist_id=YOUR_YOUTUBE_PLAYLIST_NUMBER
tested the playlist one, which works, though i'm only seeing the latest 15 entries, not sure if that's a youtube thing or a newsbeuter thing, though (never used newsbeuter... or rss before, i only know the general idea of rss)
>>62168287
>>62168097
Don't forget to add your API key to access your non-public playlists.
>>62168314
i don't have a youtube account
not sure what i'd use a custom playlist for, either, if i wanted to keep something for rewatching, i would simply download it
>>62166553

>>62168336
What the fuck is Manlet Tears doing in that picture?
>>62168352
In that case you can just create a local playlist (favs?) and play it whenever you want.
>>62168336
Excuse me, since when baneposting is shit?
I'm serious
>>62168336
Your a beeg boii
>>62168540
are you following the right conversation? this is about replacing the functionality of subscriptions, not custom playlists
as in, a means of finding out when new videos are added to a user/channel/playlist
>>62168612
>this is about replacing the functionality of subscriptions
AFAIK you can't have subscriptions unless you have an account. Unless you count RSS which has been mentioned already.
>>62168641
are you ok?
>>62166594
o kurwa siemanko
mpv and youtube-dl have problems with some videos. just like they do with pornhub
